Hi folks, here's some more explanation since there seems to be interest:

This is a warning, that happens to log the exceptions that were raised. The ImportError is being caught and handled (see code snippet below). This function determines what environment the code is being run to choose the correct cache location. Each import will only work in a specific environment.

google-api-python-client/googleapiclient/discovery_cache/__init__.py

Lines 28 to 47 in 66bb32c

	def autodetect():
	"""Detects an appropriate cache module and returns it.
	Returns:
	googleapiclient.discovery_cache.base.Cache, a cache object which
	is auto detected, or None if no cache object is available.
	"""
	try:
	from google.appengine.api import memcache
	from . import appengine_memcache
	return appengine_memcache.cache
	except Exception:
	try:
	from . import file_cache
	return file_cache.cache
	except Exception as e:
	LOGGER.warning(e, exc_info=True)
	return None

If you have comments to make about a closed issue it's best to open a new issue and reference the previous one. Repository maintainers are less likely to see comments on an already closed issue.

Thanks!
